“It’s like an old-fashioned ‘whistle-stop’ campaign event, on Main Street. With all of the candidates and issues that will be on our primary ballot, we thought this would be a unique event to let voters find out more about the candidates beyond campaign mailers and commercials for those who can afford it,” said Dawn Shelton, event organizer.

“We hope everyone will bring a chair and sit in the middle of Main Street to hear from these candidates, and support the businesses supporting the event.”

She said the Town of Luther’s Economic Development Authority is helping with the event, as well as several Luther businesses. Bison Blinds is providing the stage, Opus Entertainment will provide sound services, Thunder Moving will help with staging, and Cross Timbers Mulching is a sponsor and is bringing their mulcher for viewing!

Luther Friends of the Park will sell popcorn and candy for the event. Their proceeds will go toward renovations at Wildhorse Park. Attorney Kimberly Miller will have a table and invite attendees to an upcoming Free Guardian Naming Workshop on June 18.

Luther’s new Mexican restaurant will showcase some of its upcoming menu. Cocina de Doña Ceci is expected to open soon. Owner Chris Nevarerez said they will have gorditas for sale!
